To take a JuCo at DT he has to be pretty good.

So I guess this means the coaches don't feel to good about McFarland/Sentimore?

Considering they never offered Sentimore they probably don't feel that good about him

Good thing that he isn't the only member of this recruiting class.

not necessarily . This guy can play right away and by the time he graduates, mcfarland and campbell can step in as juniors.

Fills a big hole in the class gap. Will be a good bridge until we get Davenport and company in the mix.

6-6 is awfully tall for a dt. i dunno how you get leverage at that height. Especially in our system. Look at how al woods has been underutilized, and this guy is even bigger...

I read in an article that he has played every position on the line and runs a 4.9 and is working to get that time down. He had 50 tackles last year as a freshman. Also returned a fumble 30 yards for a TD. I think it's a great pick up

I'm guessing McFarland must be down to OU/Texas then.

We're still in it for MacFarland. Scarborough says Jamarkus was caught using 'we' when talking about LSU.
